Mr Kang, previously suspended indefinitely in 2012 for failing to pay indemnity insurance premium (breach of Rule 16.2 of the Solicitors Indemnity Insurance Rules), and later subjected to practice restrictions in 2017, applied to remove those restrictions. A prior 2021 application had been refused. The Tribunal was satisfied that Mr Kang had rehabilitated himself, completed SRA Management Courses Parts I and II and compliance courses, demonstrated insight and learning, and posed a low risk of future harm. The SRA was neutral. The Tribunal granted the application to remove all restrictions and ordered agreed costs of £1,781.00.
